Once again tax payers will support the cost of street maintenance. Just this year on CR 307 after living there 15 years we finally got some kind of maintenance to alleviate the dust bowl gravel road. Needless to say, the benefit goes to the 18 wheelers and oil field workers that drive 70 down it and practically run you over just so you can get into your gate.

Where is their contribution to road maintenance? It took us 15 years to get it paved and they are tearing it up in 6 months and pay no taxes.
